Pont Saint-Roch, Historical bridge in Colmars, France

Pont Saint-Roch spans the Verdon on two visible arches: a large central arch about 15.9 m wide and 5.25 m high, and a smaller arch to its left. The bridge is 18.10 m long and 2.60 m wide, built of rough light-grey stones of varying sizes with a solid parapet along the top. Its base is partly hidden by rocky terrain and sparse, bare vegetation.

The bridge is undocumented in medieval records; its style places it in the 17th century, more probably the 18th. It was taken out of service in 1894 and inscribed as a monument historique on 8 December 1927. It spans the Verdon at Colmars in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence.

The bridge is known locally as Pont Saint-Roch, named after the saint invoked against plague. It carried traffic over the Verdon until it was decommissioned in 1894, when a newer crossing took over. Its two arches, 18.10 m long and 2.60 m wide, are still read as a landmark of Colmars.

The bridge is decommissioned, so it is no longer used for crossing; it stands over the Verdon in Colmars, in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. Its deck is only 2.60 m wide, and the rocky ground around the base limits access to the banks.

The bridge was taken out of service in 1894, yet it was listed as a monument historique on 8 December 1927. Its single arch spans 15.90 m with a height of 5.25 m, and the deck is only 2.60 m wide over a length of 18.10 m.
